Caregiver Assistance

The Family Caregiver Assistance Program provides support, information, education and services to family caregivers throughout the Waccamaw Region. The regional caregiver advocate works directly with caregivers to provide them with information and services that help to make their job as caregivers a successful and rewarding experience while relieving many stressors involved in being a full-time caregiver.
